Attacking Waste in Software, Jean Tabaka

One of the seven principles of Lean Thinking is “eliminate waste.” Eliminating waste means minimizing the cost of the resources we use to deliver software to our stakeholders. In this keynote presentation from the 2008 Better Software Conerence & EXPO, Jean Tabaka proposes three pivotal practices that we must embrace to aggressively attack waste in software delivery—Software as a Service, Community, and Fast Feature Throughput. When IT and all software organizations embrace these practices, they will eliminate waste within their organizations, reduce the waste that consumes our entire industry, and ultimately support the broad twenty-first century global mandate to manage our scarce resources.
